Zelensky’s former spokesperson. 
Both China (20+ million people lost) and Vietnam suffered heavily under Japanese occupation, and Kazakhstan (like Ukraine) was literally part of the USSR. Gotta love how these pathetic fascists attempt to rewrite history. 
WWII was the US and UK vs. nazis and communists
WWII, a war famous for being confined to specific regions
That’s why it’s called the World War, as we know.
WWII started in China
poor kazakhstan always forgotten
maybe flag aura is too strongi am saddened that kazakhstan’s only exposure to some is fucking borat.
Other countries have inferior potassium and are jealous.
Being forgotten is one of the things that enabled them to be far less heavily looted and plunded than a lot of other former soviet nations though.
Abkhazia, Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, South Ossetia, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan were all part of the Soviet Union and had soldiers who died defending their country against the Nazis and the Axis Powers.
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Republika Srpska, Serbia were part of Yugoslavia who was invaded by the Nazis and Italians.
China, Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia were invaded and occupied by Japan.
Ethiopia first victim of WW2, invaded and occupied by Italy.
Burkina Faso and Republic of the Congo were part of the French Empire.
Egypt, India, Zimbabwe, South Africa, Myanmar, Israel, Palestine were part of the British Empire.
Mongolia helped the Soviets.
Slovakia was invaded by Nazi Germany and occupied.
North Korea occupied by Japan.
Brazil actually sent out troops to help the Americans in the Italian campaing, something even Putin talked about
Libya was colonized by Italy.
Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua declared war and gave the allied troops support.
Equatorial Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Iran remained neutral until the near end of the war.
Iran was also occupied by the British and USSR despite being neutral. And had it just been the British they probably would never have left.
Did they ever really though
Who wasn’t involved in WW2
Ireland was neutral although 80k Irish served in the British army during the war. we also let the Allies use our airspace as well as supplying intelligence and weather reports covertly.
Switzerland
They didn’t fight per se but they definitely stole a shitload of gold from jews and were economically siding the nazis
Was sarcastic.
Edit: fuck guess I really am a woman if people don’t understand my jokes lol.
Spain, Portugal (if you don’t count the Japanese Invasion of Macau and East Timor), Switzerland, Sweden, Afghanistan. Peru and Ecuador both supported the allies but still went to war against each other in 1942.
Spain was providing intel to the nazis though, even if they weren’t actively fighting, they were clearly supporting one side.
but they weren’t in the hollywood movies so they don’t count. lol
It would actually be difficult to be this wrong.
Meanwhile current Ukrainian military members marched in the British VE Day Celebration Parade days after members of the British state had yet more fawning meetings and selfie opportunities with Azov Nazis.
In slightly better news a British SAS man nicknamed ‘Swampy’, who has been training & supporting some of Azovs most openly Nazi groups since 2014, was killed in Ukraine this week.
It’s amazing how much the British were celebrating with parades and shit these last few days. They weren’t anywhere near Berlin. The Soviets took the city with the US not far away approaching from the other direction. You’d think thousands of Englishmen stormed the Führerbunker, with many of them dying in the process, with how much gloating was going on this week. Germans had to fight through eastern European Allies to get to the western Allies in order to surrender because that’s how encircled they were. Fucking Poland had more involvement than the Brits for the final defeat of the nazis.
You’re right in terms of Berlin and the final days of the war. And the way it was taught here in school way back when you’d think we were the most important and heavily effected country by WW2 despite the massive sacrifice of the Soviet Union, the number of Poles sent to camps etc. Still, half a million dead and years long bombing campaigns at home aren’t nothing. I went to school near the coast and it was a regular occurrence for us to be sent home for safety because they kept finding unexploded German ordnance on the beaches and cliffs nearby even then.
That being said, in my lifetime I’ve watched the original meaning and sentiment of remembrance and VE Day completely warp in this country. It’s almost exclusively a pro-militarist, culture war thing now, with the noisiest people about it being almost exclusively made up of shallow American-style ‘salute the troops you traitor’ types. And don’t get me started on the fucking poppy these days…
Swampy
Cw: anti british racism??
Yeah, the chilling in bogs thing would have been extremely gross to the Romans upon arrival. British bogs have a lot of peat and are much more sterile due to being acidic and having low amounts of oxygen in the water. Bodies can be preserved in bogs for centuries. Relatively safe for chilling in on a warm summer afternoon.
Swamps the Romans were used to were riddled with disease and parasites, taking a dip could give you a whole tasting platter of fungal, viral and bacterial infections, a dozen leeches and god knows what else
As someone not from the region and who has never been, it’s surprisingly easy for me to not die in Ukraine. Don’t know what this guy’s issue was 🤷♂️
Ukrainians live on a whole diff plane of delusion.
the western world is being sucked into that delusion
World* War II

Ahhh yes, the country that… checks notes …was the majority of ground battles for the Pacific Theater? I fucking hate this revisionist bullshit. You’ll hear libs who think Russia was part of the Axis, completely unaware of Churchill’s plans for Operation Unthinkable.
I’m unaware of Churchill’s plans for Operation UnthinkableTo expand on the other post, Churchill wanted to re-arm the Germans and invade the Soviet Union immediately after WWII, with help from Italy, the US, and France. After Hiroshima and Nagasaki, he insisted invading using nuclear weapons while the Soviets were still recovering.
This is what got him removed from office. People were tired of war after two decades of world wars and Churchill wanted to go start a third one. It was called “unthinkable” for a reason. Even against nukes, the Soviets likely wouldn’t throw their hands up. They still had a large, experienced military with tons of fortifications.
His reputation has since been whitewashed, especially his support for fascism. Brits and liberals overseas look at him with nostalgia as a great leader, ignoring his politics before and after the war.
Everything they claim Stalin did, Churchill actually did.

Allied plans to declare surprise war on the USSR immediately upon the surrender of Germany.
